Counterpoint Acquires Convergence
Vol. 917
May 8, 2012
Las Vegas-based supplier Counterpoint (asi/46767) has
acquired Maryland-based Convergence Corporation in a move designed to
strengthen CounterPoint's position as a counter mat
manufacturer. This acquisition expands CounterPoint's
line of counter mats by incorporating Convergence's sealed edge construction.
Going forward, the sealed edge mats previously created by Convergence will be
branded as Precision Molded counter mats.
"We've long respected Convergence's durable
construction and we're thrilled to incorporate their product lines to offer the
industry's most comprehensive line of counter mats," said Laura Martinez, CounterPoint sales manager.
CounterPoint will maintain
Convergence's Forest Hill, MD,
production facility and utilize the company's staff. Convergence has been
manufacturing counter mats for more than 25 years. "The experience of
their production crew is essential for the manufacturing of Convergence's
specialty products," said Martinez.
"Having a production facility located in Maryland
will also open up many opportunities to accommodate our customers located on
the East Coast."
Launched in 2001, Counterpoint is a sister company to Digispec (asi/49716), Visstun
(asi/93975) and AwesomeEye (asi/37661). |
